According to Dusty Grove it will be a boxed set of 7 x 7" singles, probably along the lines of the 2 previous Motown & the Stateside singles sets.

Isn't this the EP box set....there's a few more than 7!

And why "early" surely they're only? Or are they referring to pre-Tamla Motown - Stateside issues?

.....or the Miracles EP on London

Looks like it's on its way

Interesting that the Stateside logo is replaced by Tamla Motown, but London remains as London. Looks beautiful though.

We tried really hard to make them as authentic as possible and it wasn't until way down the process that it became obvious that the $tateside logo could not be used as it now belongs to Warners. The London logo I believe is still with the Universal family.
Future sets will not be affected as they were carried on the Tamla Motown label.
Otherwise these sets will be lovely - they are half laminated like the original EP's and are as close to the originals as possible.

Now you really are getting me excited Paul .... Future sets? Does this mean all the UK EP's are planned to be issued in batches?

Umm ... what about the French titles, or is that wishing for too much!

I believe there are some plans for the French EPS in the meantime the plan is if sales go well to complete the UK series
